Yea Paul it was on roo we didnt chase the tune at all. put some timing and boost into it and that was it.

wont be long till we race it i still have to put the auto in it and gas it{ i know gas is for fags IM GAY}

Paul what sort of power did your car make on a race tune? just curious not taking the piss at all :P

less power than you... :P ...with slightly less boost. Very safe tune though.

We thought it best to get the car set-up and running good consistant times with a sensible tune and reasonable boost levels. Ringing the engines neck while trying to get the set-up right is a bit silly as these engines have a short life at 1000hp+. Its now set-up right and quite consistant as the last 6 or 7 passes have been 9.7's or better with all the 60' times being in the high to mid 1.3's. Mark says there is lots left in it (about another 120hp at the treads with further boost and tuning) so ill be flying back up in a few weeks to run it again with a bit more power and set-up in the car. Small steps are the order of the day...trying big jumps can leave you frustrated and or a big expensive mess to fix.

any idea of how long till you take it out? remember the suspension guide i gave you...its a good starting platform and easier to fine tune from there.

good luck

Thanx mate. it wont be for about a month or two ive got other things going on{work shit}

so i still have to bolt the auto in and get shafts made but i will let you know

i know its easy enough to make the power we just have to get it down the track

Ok dyno dynamics could read high but knock 200kw off the figure and im still making 300kw more than most :P

i lol'd.....to save an arguement...get Vic to do it in 'Shootout' mode...its the industry standard and cross-references directly to Mainline figures.

dyno's are for tuning anyway...racing is the true measure of performance.

id like to see it run so stay in touch before you take it out.

Haha its been a while since the last "flame someones dyno figures" session on here.

Nice work Superjet, sounds like a very impressive setup - be good to hear how it goes on the strip. I know RIPS has run around 150mph in a full weight R34 GTR without NOS and slightly less boost on an RB26/30 with the same or less amount of "turbo" so while I can't make heads nor tails of how different Oz dynos read, I know that if your head is good and the tune is nice - a 26/30 with a bunch of turbo, good fuel and 30psi can make for a very hearty amount of power.

Well done mate, glad it worked out well for ya.

Was good talking to Con last week, we discussed a few things and I told him to go for it as we'd been alot further than you wanted to go with the same bottom end setup.

Best of luck mate, get the gas on there and let me know how me old auto goes too :D

Rob is this the Turbo400 4WD you been working on?

Nah, this is a different set up alltogether.

The TH400 is all but done, I'm just waiting for the car to get here from overseas thats going to be our test mule.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
